Local MD:
You could start by seeing your local medical doctor. If you don't have one, try an urgent care center. I'm not sure you need to see a doctor who prescribes selegiline, rather, someone who can check you out and manage any reactions you are having. Like your local medical doctor to start with. Good luck.

Parkinson's Disease:
Eldepryl (selegiline) is a selective monoamine oxidase inhibitor type b mao-i. It increases the Dopamine available in the barin by inhibiting the monoamine oxidase (a naturally occurring enzyme in the brain involved in removing the neurotransmitters Dopamine and serotonin from the extracellular space).

It boosts dopamine!!:
Eldepryl is o/w called selegine or zelapar (oral-disintegrating form). It's a mao-i (mono amine oxidase inhibitor) which slows the breakdown of dopamine, the central chemical deficient in parkinson's. Thereby it boosts the natural Dopamine made by the brain or the synthetic Dopamine in sinemet. Thus, symptoms are more fully & consistently treated. Azilect (rasagiline) is a much better modern choice, however.

Selegiline and:
Clonidine have no known interactions so they are okay together. Clonidine may lower blood pressure while selegiline may interact with meds and foods with possible increase in blood pressure. Review interactions. Both have an effect in treatment of ADHD for some individuals and if they work for you then effects would be additive. Best regards for good health.

Interactions:
There is concern that these medications together would cause a serotonin syndrome that could lead to cardiovascular collapse. However, in one 1994 study, patients on both these medications were found to have no serious side effects and no side effects that were found that were not in one of the medications alone. Still, many would advise not taking the medications together.
